Bill Ruckelshaus, chairman, World Resources Institute
Thank you Joel and Susanne for your generous contributions to the Global Forest Watch. As you can see from the maps that we have produced, your software will be critical in taking this work forward in other countries. Susanne, we are especially glad that Global Forest Watch data can help IKEA put its commitment to stop buying wood from frontier forests into practice — a very visible sign of the new partnerships I mentioned earlier.
